Don’t Incinerate Crucial Climate Work

A volcanic eruption could have destroyed the world’s premier barometer for measuring and understanding climate change. Demand better protections for work that could help protect the planet.

Use the ‘Science of the Stars’ to Save our Planet

A major scientific breakthrough in nuclear fusion could one day create clean and inexpensive energy on a wide scale. We must invest more in this technology with the potential to save our planet from climate change.

Kick Anti-Environmental Special Interest Groups Out of Climate Conference

Special interest groups that want to derail environmental progress are being invited to and influencing critical climate talks. Urge an end to destructive lobbying at the world’s expense.

Stop Letting Lobbyists Get Rich by Obstructing Environmental Progress

Powerful fossil fuel lobbyists are being financially rewarded for their climate policy obstruction. Demand a change of course for the continent that is helping underwrite environmental destruction.

Stop Delaying Action to End Plastic Pollution

Plastics are everywhere, including countless places they should not be. Land, the oceans, and our drinking water contain traces of a material we have allowed to become an all-pervasive pollutant, and efforts to seriously address plastic waste are not happening fast enough. Urge a nearer-term deadline to prevent further damage.

Don’t Kill Koalas for Coal

Koalas, gliders, and other endangered wildlife could soon have their homes destroyed if the coal industry gets its way. The proposed development could also further stoke the raging fire of global warming. Demand leaders stop catering to these destructive special interests.

A cherished tribal land and rich habitat could be endangered if a dam construction project goes forward. Urge continued opposition to this potential environmental and cultural hazard.

Stop Gas Pipelines From Leaking Deadly Chemicals Into Our Air and Water

Gas pipelines are causing irreversible damage to the environment. Leaks end up in groundwater, streams, and the atmosphere, and little has been done to address these ongoing problems. Urge the EPA to modernize our pipelines and prevent dangerous chemicals from entering the environment.

Stop Overconsumption From Destroying the Planet

Excess consumerism is now a leading cause of climate change, in which the buying habits of first world countries produce carbon emissions exponentially greater than those of other regions. This excessive waste cheats consumers and harms the planet. Urge the Federal Trade Commission to require manufacturers to make electronics that last and reduce the nation’s carbon footprint.

Start Paying Nations Equally for Reducing Greenhouse Gasses

The rise of greenhouse gasses has led to some regions receiving financial compensation for their efforts to reduce this environmental poison. Africa is a major player working with polluters but is not paid as equally as others. Demand fair compensation for African nations who are helping to save the planet.

Stop Making Toxins and Hazardous Waste Under the Guise of “Recycling”

Chemical companies want to classify toxic facilities as “recycling” plants, evading health and environmental regulations. Don’t let polluters get away with greenwashing hazardous waste.

Include Livestock’s Massive Carbon Footprint in Climate Change Talks

The meat and dairy industry’s huge contribution to the global climate crisis is once again being overlooked by policymakers. Call for action to reduce carbon emissions from animal agriculture.

Force Powerful Chemical Companies to Protect Public Health

3M produces toxic chemicals that reportedly leech into nature and eventually our drinking water. This powerful company has seemingly admitted the adverse effects its products can have on people but has done little to address it. Demand 3M work to reverse potential harm done and prevent anyone else from getting sick.

Save Citruses From Succumbing to Yellow Dragon Disease

Yellow dragon disease, a deadly bacterium carried in insects, is targeting orange trees around the world. Demand global leaders utilize a natural predator to fight this deadly foe.

Success: Climate Change Combatted With Zero-Emission Vehicles and Stricter Pollution Testing

New Mexico has introduced stricter vehicle emissions standards, reversing a Trump era roll back of environmental protections. Add your name to thank this state for taking swift action against climate change.

Success: No New Havens for Fossil Fuel Plunderers

In the war between fossil fuel conglomerates and the environment, the planet was delivered a needed win. Three oil and gas leases that would have destroyed wildlife habitats and further undermined efforts to fight climate change were canceled. Applaud this important step against wholesale climate destruction.

Success: Disadvantaged Communities Protected From Environmental Racism

Big polluters have long invaded disadvantaged communities and torpedoed environmental and public health in the process. Commend leaders for a renewed commitment to environmental justice.

Success: Bear Who Broke Into Homes for Food Saved From Euthanasia

The bear who broke into multiple California homes has been saved from euthanasia. DNA samples showed that he was not the sole culprit, and it is safe to relocate him to a different part of the forest once captured.
